Plot -
While Wasp supervises the reconstruction of the Avengers Mansion's subbasement, Captain
America wonders what his role should be, now that Wasp in the chairwoman and leader. He
nearly tries to take over, but decides to leave the Wasp be. He next stops by to see the
Scarlet Witch as she keeps her vigil over the wounded and in statis Vision. Cap worries
about her, but can not do anything to raise her spirits. Afterwards, he heads to the gym,
ready for his workout with Starfox. After being delayed by a pretty lady, Starfox is late
and Cap reprimands him harshly. He quickly apologizes, knowing that he is simply taking
his frustration out on Starfox. On the streets of New York, the She-Hulk is out jogging
when a car cuts her off, so she slams her mighty fist into the car. The driver then
attacks the Shulkie, but Spider-Man intervenes before She-Hulk hurts the stupid man.
She-Hulk and the man apologize, and when She-Hulk tells Spider-Man not to worry about the
expenses, her 1000 dollar a week Avengers pay will more than take of it, Spider-Man
suddenly realizes he made a big mistake when he passed up the chance on being an Avenger.
In a state prison not far away, the guards discover that the Wizard, with the aid of
Plant-Man, has replaced himself with a plant-life duplicate and escaped. The government
quickly alerts the Avengers, and the team gathers in the conference room. The Scarlet
Witch wants to remain behind to watch over the Vision, but the Wasp decides that Cap
Marvel can do that. She pairs herself with Starfox, and she gives the Witch and She-Hulk
to Cap to search out the Wizard's homes. When the three arrive at the mansion, they find
the door open. The split up and find themselves in traps: She-Hulk in a never ending set
of doors, Cap in a no-gravity war zone, and the Witch in a room with no probability. The
She-Hulk and Cap destroy their traps, but the Witch has to go a step further. She blasts
away the room, and takes the Wizard, who was watching the entire time, out with it! The
three quickly regroup and attack the fleeing Wizard and easily capture him. They return
home to find that the events of the day have proved to raise their spirits, proving that
the Wasp does know what she's doing. |
